beautiful flowers but I'm pretty sure those aren't lupines tho I don't know what they are. lupines have different leaves. too hot for raspberries down here but we did have a banner year of dew berries. ate some every day and have about 6 cups in the freezer.

They have the same shape as lupines but I would go with Pam and say it is a speedwell.I see there is a net over the berries - you won't have to share as much with the birds! Though this afternoon I just watch a chipmunk crawl under a similar net and leave with a strawberry!

Oh, raspberries!!! Love them. I may have to run to Krogers to pick some up now. BTW, if those turn out not to be lupine, they might be speedwell (veronica). Just a thought. I'm not the super gardener or anything (even though I play one on my blog :) , but they sort of look like the ones I have in my front flower bed.

Hari OmOh dear Joanne - masterclass in cottage plants via the magic of the etherwebbles!!!... the blue spike I am 99% sure is a salvia; the pods I think are the dried seed heads of the alium (more lily than anemone); and the red unnamed appears to be one of the dahlia types.

That's my dib on the garden! Of which I am mighty jealous BTW... YAM xx

I agree with Yamini, the seed pods do look very much like allium. Anemones are a bulb plant and would look much different. when mine flower then die, I'll take photos. of course that's a few months away yet.

Your garden looks great. We finally planted raspberries and blueberries this year. I was surprised when the blueberries produced a small handful of berries this year. I, too, look forward to the second year when we'll get enough of each to make jam and blueberry muffins.

Your reddish unknown is definitely a monarda aka bee balm...the leaves make an excellent tea. It's a member of the mint family, so expect it to spread. Btw, raspberry leaves also make a great tea, so you can two uses for the price of one!

So jealous of your bounty! We've had a monsoon Spring and my garden is not thriving. Everything, even my hardy herbs are looking waterlogged and crabby. Goes with my mood since I cant use my hands to garden and have become a task mistress over poor Bing and Liv, who are not as vigilant about weeds as I would like....
